Augustine, St, of Canterbury (d. between 604 and 609), first Abp. of Canterbury. Sent from Rome by Gregory I, Augustine landed in Kent in 597; within a few months Christianity was formally adopted by Ethelbert, King of Kent, whose wife was already a Christian. In 604 he sent Justus to preach west of the R. Medway and Mellitus to work among the East Saxons. Feast day, 26 May; in the RC Church since 1969, 27 May.
